That was the ticket. &nbsp;Once I disabled the cached mode, I was able to disable offline access. &nbsp;Then I copied my OST file to another drive, reopened outlook, reenabled offline access, browsed for the new location, reenabled cached mode, closed and restarted, and it worked.<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Ok - silly question.<br />
<br />
Microsoft says that to disable offline access for you do the following:<br />
<br />
How to disable an OST: 1. Open the Mail Control Panel. <br />
2. Click the Microsoft Exchange Server service and click Properties. <br />
3. Click the Advanced tab, and then click Offline Folder Settings. <br />
4. Click Disable Offline Use. You may also want to rename the OST file on the local computer. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
However, when I attempt to do this, the button itself is disabled (visible but not clickable).<br />
<br />
What up with that? &nbsp;Any ideas? &nbsp;Could it be b/c the account I use on my local laptop does not have the same username/pword as my exchange box? &nbsp;We don't log into a domain here... we just do exchange over a VPN.<br />
<br />
I have windows XP PRO SP 2 installed.<br />

Thanks<br />

OST 'Disable offline access' is not 'enabled' to click on... how do I 'enable' the button?
